Specialty Pharmacy Services
Dermatology Specialty Pharmacy
Accord Specialty Pharmacy provides dispensing and support services for patients managing complex dermatological conditions including plaque psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, hidradenitis suppurativa, and alopecia areata. We assist with prior authorization and biologic enrollment so patients can start therapy without delays.
Conditions We Serve
Dermatological Conditions
Plaque Psoriasis
A chronic autoimmune skin condition that causes the rapid buildup of skin cells, resulting in scaling, inflammation, and red patches. Biologic therapies targeting IL-17, IL-23, and TNF-alpha pathways have significantly expanded treatment options for moderate to severe disease.
Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema)
A chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by dry, itchy, and inflamed skin. Dupilumab and JAK inhibitors are specialty medications approved for patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis who have not responded to topical therapies.
Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS)
A chronic inflammatory skin disease affecting hair follicles in areas where skin rubs together. Humira (adalimumab) was the first biologic approved specifically for HS, with additional options now available for patients with moderate to severe disease.
Alopecia Areata
An autoimmune condition that causes patchy hair loss on the scalp and elsewhere on the body. JAK inhibitors including baricitinib (Olumiant) are approved for severe alopecia areata and require specialty pharmacy dispensing.
Biologic therapies for chronic inflammatory skin conditions require careful prior authorization, specialty enrollment, and ongoing adherence support. Accord manages the full access journey from referral to doorstep delivery.
Specialty Support for Dermatology Patients
Prior Authorization Support
Dermatology biologics consistently require prior authorization. Our team assists with PA submission using complete clinical documentation and follows up with payers to resolve denials and delays.
Biologic Start Support
Getting patients started on a new biologic involves multiple steps. Accord coordinates enrollment in manufacturer start programs, obtains necessary prior authorizations, and schedules delivery to align with the patient's first dose date.
Copay and Patient Assistance
We enroll patients in manufacturer copay programs for all major dermatology biologics and JAK inhibitors, and identify patient assistance resources for uninsured or underinsured patients who need additional support.
Doorstep Delivery
Accord ships dermatology specialty medications to patients in states where Accord holds an active pharmacy license. Biologics requiring refrigeration are packaged with validated cold-chain materials to protect drug potency during transit.
